About this home
If you are looking for location and a historic home, this residence is tucked away on one of Old Town Key West's most peaceful lanes. This conch home won the distinguished Historic Florida Keys Preservation Star in 1988 and has been in the same family for over 40 years—a true testament to its warmth, character, and enduring appeal. The main house features generously sized rooms, high ceilings, and Dade County pine walls, all of which have been beautifully restored by local craftsmen. Attached to the main house is a versatile studio apartment, originally part of the home's original footprint and easily convertible back into a grand primary suite. Additionally, there is a detached studio cottage, perfect for guests or generating extra income. Part of the historic preservation effort focuses on the large wraparound front porch, featuring delicate gingerbread trim. The original water cistern was turned into a pool. This residence is a living piece of Key West's vibrant history. Jimmy Buffett used to live next door for some time, writing his book and songs. Now available as part of an estate sale, don't miss your opportunity to be the next steward of this extraordinary legacy.
